Why I support dh/dk (kinda)

PVP Arenas

Idk they’re both pretty equally braindead man. Although at least I’ve seen good RMPals exist (mostly from good players of those classes just deciding to que it) - but mes/dew/trill are the only actual good DK/DH on NA

Realistically both comps are just super forgiving ladder comps, Dk/DH just gets the added bonus of also being a T1 tourney comp.

Also the part about Dk/Dh that’s the funniest to me is the consistent pressure it has is already enough to make healers use a ton of mana so it makes it funny that mana rift exists.

I suppose it’s just a pick your poison type of thing, but I feel like rogue mage is just much more oppressive all game and rewarded for everything they do. Dh/dk doesn’t feel absolutely horrible until your healer is oom for me at least.

I’d que into rmpala all day over dhdk, at least rmpala is beatable unlike dh dk, their can be super bad dh dk’s that just win because of pve gear, and super bad rmpala’s that just lose because they are bad.

So just like dh dk then?

25

I mean like I said factually there are more good RMPals at high end than DK/DH and DK/DH is actually a t1 tourney comp but they’re both equal when it comes to just being braindead ladder comps so it doesn’t have anything to do with a pick your poison imo.

They’re both equally as forgiving, there’s just more room to do better as RMPal than you can as DK/DH.

Sometimes the 2200 RMPala will DR its own kidney but it doesn’t really make a difference in the outcome of the match

27

This is actualy the largest issue wih RMPal, it’s overtuned too much that mistakes on goes just aren’t punishing enough. If they were it wouldn’t be as bad to have a comp on a time limit of 2-3 goes (which also is not what ends up happening either, they live much longer).

RMPals issue is just tuning everywhere.

DK/DH is partially tuning but it’s also kind of just still based on the cheesiness of DKs being great at stopping drinks and having a 70% slow and DH having mana burn, and together a bunch of shared strong defensive CDs. The tuning just makes it extra forgiving but it’s pretty dumb on paper.

28

Tbh I haven’t played since the Void Stone nerf so I’m assuming RMPala is a little easier to beat if they haven’t killed you by their 3rd go

29

It is a pick your poison type of thing when I say that I mean what different people prefer facing and what feels less bad to them and yes there’s more room for good rmpalas to make sICk pLaYs regardless it doesn’t matter though because the comp is so forgiving. :slight_smile:

All of this DH/DK talk makes me dislike Cdew even more.

Acts like he is the biggest complainer about mana burn, yet is the only team NA that plays it. Defends the DK disease bug saying healers shouldn’t be able to drink with a dot on them, even after being out of combat for 5 seconds.

Edit: Did want them to win though. Can’t support, um the moving priest, frying routers or Whazz calling himself a god all the time.

That and Mes might be the best/nicest guy ever.

That is Cdew for ya. Mana Burning and Bugging traits to win blizzcon.
